Our 2010 Open Gardens scheme offers a rare opportunity to explore the secrets of hidden and private gardens not usually open to the public. Over 40 gorgeous gardens will be opening throughout the Summer, giving you lots of opportunities to share their delights with their owners.
You can view a variety of gardens, large and small, informal and formal, but all offering an opportunity to admire and inspire! Points of interest include water features, summer-inspired coloured borders, spectacular views, organic gardening, and fruit and vegetable crops. Some gardens will also be offering refreshments and the opportunity to purchase plants and horticultural merchandise.
